In this paper,the mechanical properties of recycled concrete are reviewed at home and abroad,so as to provide a reference for the application of recycled concrete in the construction field.Firstly,this paper introduces the basic concept of recycled concrete and its importance in the construction field,and then condenses the properties of recycled concrete,such as compressive strength,flexural strength,durability,etc.,and compares them with ordinary concrete.At the same time,improvement methods are also proposed for the manufacture of recycled concrete,so that its mechanical properties can be improved to ensure its safety and reliability in the building structure.Finally,the future development trend and challenges are discussed,and it is believed that recycled concrete has broad market prospects and application potential in the process of popularization and application.
